Members skaaks Posted August 24, 2006 Author Members Share Posted August 24, 2006 I didn't even mention the worst part of all of this... When he shipped the package via UPS, he insured it even though he knew the amp wasn't inside. Then, when it got to my house and was empty, he acted like UPS must have stolen it so a claim was started. As it stands, it looks like he's going to get ANOTHER check from UPS for the insured amount. I'm DEFINITELY going to UPS with all of this. I'm pretty sure insurance fraud across state lines is a felony. Originally posted by GRIZ That sucks man, hope you get your money back. I hate a {censored}in thief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bradman006 Posted August 24, 2006 Members Share Posted August 24, 2006 What a prick. But hang on.... you have his phone number and have confirmed it to actually be his? Go to the cops mate. He's going down. If the cops in your country are as lazy as ours and don't do anything, get a few mates and do a road trip, find where he lives and do some serious repo.

As I told my friend after I found out he was trying to trade MY amp, the only Powerball he's going to see is from some dude named Dwayne in the state penitentary. You could use this threat to extort him if you really wanted to get back at him. But then you'd be lowering yourself to his level suppose. Nah, get your money back + whatever expenses it takes to recoup the funds then watch him squirm in court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Thrust Posted August 24, 2006 Members Share Posted August 24, 2006 That's pathetic. NOTE TO MODS! If you're going to create a "user complaints" section for transaction feedback. MAKE SURE IT WORKS. Heads up for another scammer "falln2infinity" aka "zdk1774" aka Zach King. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get UPS on the case, at least he might be stopped from scamming them and if they already gave him a check they'll definately go after it. Don't waste anytime reporting him to the cops, the longer you wait the more slippery he'll become. also http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dreamspace Posted August 24, 2006 Members Share Posted August 24, 2006 He's going to have a hard time getting any money from UPS...

I don't think they're going to buy the "some of your guys changed out the amp with plastic weights" thing. The last time I talked to him, he said that he called UPS and they said the claim was denied but then he mentioned something about his dad being a lawyer and they approved it. It sounds like a load of crap to me, but he seemed pretty excited to get the money. Also, when I got the box it was in really bad shape (rips, holes, etc) so who knows, they might have been more likely to believe his story given the shape of the box.

Members Kung-Fool Posted August 24, 2006 Members Share Posted August 24, 2006 If you've spoken to his parents before you should call again and tell them what's going on. Tell them you're going to contact the authorities if he doesn't make it right. That could possibly do something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
